The Canadian press reported on the Armenians in the Ottoman Empire as
early as the 19th century. Canadians became informed about the
conditions Armenians lived in and the violence they faced during the
1895-96 Hamidian Massacres, the 1909 Adana Massacres and the 1915-1923
Armenian Genocide. Various articles from these time periods will be
posted on Sara Corning Centre for Genocide website
() over the next
several months to raise awareness and educate about the Armenian
Genocide as reported in the Canadian Press.
